Science > Biology > Introduction to Biology > Importance of the Study of Biology Biology is a branch of science which studies living beings that all plants and animals including humans. It is a word derived from Greek words (Greek: bios = life; logos = study). No one can say when the study of biology exactly […]
In this article, we shall study the subject matter of ownership and the modes of acquisition of ownership. The Subject Matter of Ownership: The main subject-matter of ownership consists of a material object, such as land and chattels. But ownership is by no means limited to things of this category. A man’s wealth1 may consist […]
In the previous article, we have studied the meaning of the term “ownership”. In this article, we shall study the characteristics of ownership. According to Salmond, ownership denotes a relation between a person and an object forming the subject-matter of his ownership. It consists of complex of rights, all of which are rights in rem, […]
The concept of ownership is one of the fundamental juristic concepts common to all systems of law. The concept of ownership seems to have come into being when the society changed from nomadic to agricultural. Roman Law: In Roman law possession and ownership were recognized as two separate and distinct conceptions. In Roman law, a […]
Science > Physics > Force > Simple Numerical Problems on Force In this article, we shall study to solve numerical problems to calculate the magnitude of force, momentum, and change in momentum. Example – 01: The speed of a tortoise and hare are 1 m/s and 3 m/s respectively. The mass of the hare is 5 […]
Science > Physics > Introduction to Measurements > Other Important Units The quantity to be measured may be very large so that the SI unit of that quantity may be smaller to use or the quantity to be measured is so small that the SI unit of that quantity is very large to use. Hence […]
Science > Physics > Introduction to Measurements > System of Units There are as many units as there are independent quantities. We consider length, mass, and time three quantities which are independent of each other. Hence they have three separate units for their measurements. Hence it is required to define systems of units. LIST OF […]
Science > Physics > Introduction to Measurements > Measurement and its Need Physics is a science of measurement. In this article, we shall study the meaning of the term ‘measurement’ and its importance in the field of science and engineering. “When you can measure what you are speaking about and express it in numbers, you […]
Science > Physics > Physics and Other Sciences LIST OF SUB-TOPICS Physics is a study of matter and energy in its different forms. In other words, physics is the study of nature and its laws. We expect that all the different events taking place in nature always take place according to some basic rules and […]
Science > Physics > Science and Scientific View Some of the most profound statements on the nature of science have come from Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all time. What do you think did Einstein mean when he said: “The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible”? Explanation: […]
